Veteran singer, Daddy Showkey, has called the Senator representing Kogi West, Dino Melaye, a liar.
The 44-year-old senator recently claimed that he spent 11 hours on a tree to escape abduction.
“I jumped into the bush, and I started running. They pursued me and I was able to outmanoeuvre them and climb a tree.
“I was on top of the three when I saw them run past looking frantically for me. When they didn’t find me, they also ran back,” he said.
Daddy Showkey, however, didn’t see any truth in Melaye’s story as he took to Instagram on Wednesday to state for a fact that Senator Dino Melaye is a lair.
The 47-year-old shared a video of the senator explaining how he escaped the alleged kidnap. He captioned it, “Oba Liar 1 Lie lie Master Our Oga.”
Radio presenter, Toolz, amongst other Nigerians didn’t believe in Dino Melaye’s abduction. The OAP took to Twitter to ask he was genuinely kidnapped or it is one of his ploys to dominate the headlines.
The Nigeria Police Force said that it had not received any complaint or report in any of its divisions or stations throughout the Federal Capital Territory or any other state command about the reported kidnap.
Melaye is facing charges of illegal possession of firearms and arms dealing at a Senior Magistrate’s Court in Lokoja, Kogi State.
